Dear SAM Team

I am trying to simulate Wind using SAM but I get the notification said "Could not check hub height compared to resource height. This may indicate a problem with your weather file". Kindly help with this issue. I have attached my srw file here.

Regards
Shubham

Hi Shubham,

The file you attached is not a text file with comma-separated data. Please see the "SRW Format for Wind" Help topic for a description of the SRW file format:

Best regards,
Paul.

Dear Paul,

 this was quite helpful. I tried to navigate through a sample script to model a wind turbine as given in this  Link . However I could see that   PySAM-Wind  output group does not give hourly wind output in kW for 8760 timestamps. Can you help me with this, How could I get the time series output from the wind turbine ?

Best
Shubham

Hi Subham,

The output 'gen' is the time series electrical output of the wind farm in kW.

Best regards,
Paul.
